The Chief Advisor to His Excellency Pope Francis Head of the Vatican invited Mushaal to visit the Vatican City and send the message of peace and interfaith harmony to the world as a Muslim woman of the 21st century.
Mushaal said that it was need of the time to develop and identify mystical interpretations around the true moderate and tolerant message of Islam to the world and become an enabler towards meaningful interfaith dialogues.

Both agreed that religious leaders, as spiritual guides and moral authorities, have a profound influence on their followers.
